I am touched by your confidence in me. However, I feel that it is not appropriate that I run for adminship at this time. I do not edit Simple English Wikipedia very much compared to other people, and my situation has not changed since my last request for adminship -- I still have a low mainspace count, the stumbling block of my last request for adminship. I rarely report vandals to WP:VIP, and I only sometimes tag articles for deletion. The only use I would have for adminship would be adding gadgets to preferences, which is low on the priority list for the Wikipedia. Indeed, if I was voting in my own request for adminship, I would probably oppose myself. However, I would be delighted if you could try and persuade me otherwise.

Yes, that's pretty much 50:50. Not very good odds :|. But feel free to get as many people as you can to Support me anyway! — μ 21:58, Saturday January 9 2010 (UTC)
(change conflict) I do not want to be nominated by someone who swears that much. Please cease and desist. — μ 22:24, Saturday January 9 2010 (UTC)
MC8 knows me and my views on him being an admin and knows that my comment was a joke. Please desist from the profanities also. Goblin22:21, 9 January 2010 (UTC) I ♥ Kennedy![reply]
about the BBC showing. There are several disadvantages to being a United Statesian, one is that we have to wait a month or two to see BBC shows. I gotta know, because I will be asked, was there any music footage from Dixon? The band members all had to sign release forms and want to know. Thanks again.

I don't know; I didn't watch all of it. I just noticed it when I was flicking through the channels. — μ 13:12, Monday February 1 2010 (UTC)

I really like your megabook script, especially the welcome one. Is it possible if I could also use it at the English Wikipedia? Thanks, Airplanemantalk20:37, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Go ahead! Just remember to attribute with a link to the page you got it from. Many of the scripts are borrowed from English Wikipedia, for example, en:User:Js. There's a list of contributors at the bottom of the Megabook page -- look around their English Wikipedia userpages and you'll probably find a localised version. If you're copying from here, you'll want to change any URLs that say simple.wikipedia.org to en.wikipedia.org. — μ 23:32, Tuesday March 16 2010 (UTC)

Thanks :). You might want to update it, as the welcome template ({{Welcome}}) now has the four tildes included. Right now, I'm getting a double signature. Thanks, Airplaneman ✈22:56, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
